Hi all, people who hate paying subs for WAMUG seem to forget that there must be a cost in maintaining a website and running the list, etc. As Ronnie says, the no one is being paid a salary, the committee are volunteers. The majority of us know this and think its very good value. Free websites get their income from advertising links.
I don't think anyone who wants to be on the list has a good reason to complain about having to contribute to the costs.
